Bombay Potatoes (mild/medium)

Bombay Potatoes (mild/medium)

Bombay Potatoes a bit on the side! A popular, simply spiced dry potato dish. Can be served instead of rice. They make a great alternative to roast potatoes, instead of cubing try mashing and serving with sausages.

Also great with our Curry On range of main dishes; Madras, Jalfrezi, Balti,Tikka Masala or Korma.

The Recipes

The recipes in the kits are designed as a guide. Feel free to make these dishes your own. If you fancy a bit more sauciness in your life add a splash of coconut milk or an extra tin of tomatoes. The kits are so versatile; rub into fish meat or fish before throwing on the BBQ, or in the oven. Go crazy and experiment!

These sugar free kits are low in fat; for an even healthier option the cooking oil, can be replaced with spray oil. The cream in the Tikka Masala and Korma can be replaced with coconut milk, crème fraiche or yoghurt.

Feel free to substitute the meat for other types of meat e.g. lamb/pork If using alternative meat adjust cooking times depending on the meat. Any vegetables or mixed vegetables can be used. Tofu and soya also work great with the kits. When cooking with fish it’s best to use a firm fleshed, robust fish such as monkfish or halibut which doesn’t fall apart in the pan too quickly.

TOO HOT?

KEEP CALM as you have a range of options to reduce the heat of the dish. Add a dash of lemon or lime juice. The acid should help in reducing the heat. Vinegar also is a good addition. Spooning in more liquid can help. Dairy helps to temper the spices, stir in a couple of tablespoons of natural/Greek yoghurt, sour cream or coconut milk.

Eating raita made out of natural or Greek yogurt helps to cool things down as does a sweet or salty lassi.

NOT HOT ENOUGH?

Chuck in some extra chillies we prefer fresh but any kind works just as well.

I used a quarter of a pack in a potato empanadilla (pasty) which I made last weekend – I should have used more tho, as the flavour dispersed thru the total mix a bit too much for me, and I quite like a nice kick – but the next time I’ll just make a whole batch up, as the flavour was incredible.

This is perhaps my favourite pack. I use them a lot. They make perfect bombay potatoes and I often do them as an accompaniment to an Indian roast chicken on a Sunday with a simple raita as well. I often only use half a pack and keep the rest.

I usually mix my own spices, but I was ravenous tonight and didn’t have the time or patience. I had to eat the sweet potatoes tonight, but I wasn’t sure what to do with them. Looking for inspiration in my drawer of interesting ingredients, my hand fell on the packet of Bombay Potato spice I’d picked up at a food fair. I quickly pureed an onion, garlic, ginger and green chillies, fried them off with the spice, then added a squeeze of tomato puree. I chucked in the boiled sweet potatoes and a handful of frozen spinach and my new favourite quick meal was born. Delicious! Thanks very much!

The SaucedHere.co.uk team tried the madras and the bombay potato kits which were bloomin’ brilliant. Tasted better than a takeaway and felt a lot healthier. We are really proud to help supply these to those living or visiting the Peak District!
